In set theory, a unary operation on set A is a function A->A. More generally, a unary operation is a function with exactly one operand, such as the factorial, square root, or ...

A quantity which does not exhibit estimator bias. An estimator theta^^ is an unbiased estimator of theta if <theta^^>=theta.

Variables x_i and x_j are said to be uncorrelated if their covariance is zero: cov(x_i,x_j)=0. Independent statistics are always uncorrelated, but the converse is not ...
